from the back of the book:
That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons, even death may die…
Dark gods sleeping within the depths of earth and ocean. Shub-Niggurath, Cthulhu, Nyarlathotep, Yog-Sothoth, Azathoth. Are they dead, asleep and dreaming, or do they walk among us? Only through ancient and long-forgotten tomes of forbidden knowledge can one call forth these dread beings, or stand against the darkness of these alien beings from the Outer Dark.
